102.2. introduced infectious diseases early detection system that allows the Department to conduct the investigation of infectious diseases and ensure rapid 102.2.1.: clinical signs of infectious disease recognition, which leads to the suspicion of infectious disease, as well as provides quick detection of new infectious diseases or the unexplained mortalities aquaculture animals investigation nurseries bivalve mollusc farming areas and populations of wild aquatic animals;
102.2.2. rapid reporting service to start as soon as possible of the diagnostic investigation.
103. This rule 102.2. referred to the infectious diseases early detection system provides to: 103.1. aquaculture aquaculture establishments or enterprises involved in processing employee understanding of infectious diseases, the clinical signs or suspicion of disease in aquaculture animals should be sufficient;

104. on 1 November, 2008, the Latvian territory declared infectious disease based on targeted surveillance, where the last known clinical infectious diseases outbreak happened 10 years before infectious disease-free status or where the infection status of the territory was not known, and if the following conditions are met: 104.1. performing biosecurity measures in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 102;
104.2. a targeted surveillance is carried out in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 90, it works no less than two years and during this period the bivalve molluscs in farms or farming area no infectious disease agents. If part of the territory of Latvia in the farm or mollusc farming area of bivalve targeted monitoring does not provide enough epizootiological data, targeted surveillance shall also apply to existing wild populations of aquatic animals, if it contains one or more animals of susceptible species.
105. the service shall determine the boundaries of the zone and its map, based on one of the following criteria: 105.1. area is all the water catchment area from the source to the mouth;
105.2. zone is part of a water catchment area from the source to the natural or artificial barrier that prevents the migration of wild aquatic animals to the top of the lower stage of a water catchment area;
105.3. zone is more of a water catchment area, the mouth if they are related to the epizootiological water catchment area.
106. the service is not allowed to proclaim the area of infectious disease, if it extends into neighbouring territory of a Member State of the European Union, except when the entire area is filled this rule 107, 108, 109 and 110. the conditions referred to in paragraph and two Member States of the European Union asked the European Commission to register as an infectious disease the zone, which is located in each Member State of the European Union territory.

108. If the service uses this rule 107, paragraph infectious disease status, delivery of it to the 2008 November 1, the European Commission submitted a declaration in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 92.

114. the station, where the last known clinical infectious disease outbreaks have found no less than 10 years before the infectious disease of the circuit status or whose surroundings are station or waters of the State before the start of a targeted surveillance was not known to be considered infectious disease, and service it organizes measures to ensure that the conditions referred to in paragraph 104.
115. The station, which implemented a monitoring programme for each farm or mollusc farming area of bivalve: 115.1. the service by a buffer zone;
115.2. officers carried out certain measures to prevent infectious diseases from entering and spreading.
116. The station, comprising one or more farms, of which the animal health situation for aquaculture animals in relation to the specific infectious disease does not depend on the State of health in relation to the surrounding waters are: 116.1. individual farms, considered as one unit, because the epizootiological does not affect the aquatic animal health status;
116.2. more farms if they are included under a common biosecurity system and each farm station complies with this provision in subparagraph 117 116.1., 118, 119, 120, and 121 requirements referred to in paragraph, but the broad movement of aquaculture animals between farms it is regarded as one of the epizootiological unit.
117. Station equipped with water: 117.1. using the water supply device that deactivates the particular infectious disease agent, reducing the risk of infectious disease risk to an acceptable level;
117.2. directly from the well, a borehole or a spring. Where such water supply established outside the territory of the farm water supply directly to the farm through the pipe.
118. The station is natural or artificial barriers that prevent aquatic animals surrounding bodies of water to get any of the circuit for farms.

120. these provisions apply to station 104. the requirements referred to in paragraph 1.
121. The station shall take measures to prevent the entry of infectious disease vectors (controls the location of the station, let only clinically healthy and kept in quarantine for aquaculture animals for aquaculture animals are getting into an appropriate State of health).
122. If the new Kennel complies with this provision, in paragraph 118 117.1., 119, 120 and 121.. the requirements referred to in paragraph 1 and is located in the station, which declared disease-free, the Kennel is considered infectious disease and not necessary for infection disease-free farms status for approval.
123. If the Kennel that matches this rule 117.1., 118, 119, 120 and 121.. the requirements referred to in paragraph 1, resumes after a break and in the station, which declared an infectious disease, Kennel not necessary for infection disease-free farms for the approval status when: 123.1. officers of the health history of the farm is known for the last four years (if the farm running in less than four years having regard to its real life);
123.2. Kennel will not be subject to the rules referred to in annex 1 of the infectious disease control measures and infectious diseases in this farm is not established;

A medium level of risk of bivalve shellfish farm or growing zone service granted: 125.1. is a medium risk to spread the infection to other farms or wild aquatic animal populations or are likely to be infected from other farms or wild aquatic animal resources (going on the movement of aquaculture animals between farms, which have no particular status in relation to infectious diseases);
125.2. growing conditions do not increase the risk of infectious disease outbreaks (medium biomass volume (density of aquaculture animals is 30-60 kg/m3 of water), water quality is medium (water in laboratory studies, the total number of micro-organisms found one to two times the water pollution standards in micro-biological));
125.3. sales of live aquatic animals for human consumption.
126. the low level of risk of bivalve shellfish farm or growing zone service granted: 126.1. has little potential to spread infectious diseases to other farms or wild aquatic animal populations or not likely become infected from other farms or wild aquatic animal resources (going on the movement of aquaculture animals between farms that have a particular status in relation to infectious diseases);
126.2. growing conditions do not increase the risk of outbreaks of infectious diseases (low biomass volume (density of aquaculture animals are up to 50 kg/m3 of water), good water quality (water in laboratory studies revealed the total number does not exceed the micro-water microbiological pollution norms);
126.3. sales of live aquatic animals for human consumption only.
